  • The philosophy of sound is genius. Great APP!

    Of course Boris had always pioneered pushing the E-envelope, tweaking frequency amplitude and tempo since such tweaking was possible. It gets five stars would get six if I could. A time and color animated bar showing you at which point of the sample is recording Would be great for planning Local mayhem at specific intervals. He does guess well with the peak and signification algorithms. This app is more genius than you the user deserve. Where do I send money or a dog? I suggest getting out those old mix tapes of Kraftwerk, Fripp and Eno, Jaree and of course Yello!

  • Great Idea - Tech Problems

    I love this app, it's a very interesting, fast and fun take on sampling, effects and sequencing. Unfortunately, too often for some reason it sits in the background running, like, CONSTANTLY. And I have not found a way to turn it off. Sadly had to delete the app, was crushing my iPhone 5 (was hot to the touch!)

  • Neat ap!

    Wow! This is indeed unique and doesn't require much real music talent to start making neat wacky patterns and synth lines! Not for making very precise accurate sparkling top 40 music though... Which is exactly what I was looking for this is for those who make alien glitchy freaky sounding stuff and don't want to sound like anybody else! Some nice sounding synths and hits in there from the Yello guys

  • Love this app!!

    One of the most fun music apps out there. Love the audiobus support! However, I would give 10 stars (if they'd let me) if they would let you have multiple and saved recordings. I'd be happy to pay for a PRO version with those features.
  • Super fun, simple approach, but a powerful tool for making music (or just having fun!)

    A unique and original approach to making music and having fun with sounds. A great example of using the iPad to make a completely new musical instrument/tool/interface.
  • Unlike anything else I have seen.

    You can import a sound file and set your slice points. Create your own or randomize the slices in 16 beat patterns. Save your work and export it.
    I've been creating my own samples to use in the program by having multiple elements all on one file i.e. drumbeat, bass line, melody and individual hits all laid out one after the other. Set the slice points and you can then use these elements as individual sound blocks.
    Contrary to the review below, you CAN load more than one sound file, just not in the same song.
    I love that it just keeps playing no matter what you do. You can switch songs, edit patterns or the sequence and it never stops. You can even record over the loop that you are using through the phones mic and capture part of your old loop and whatever other noises you have going. Brilliant!
    Creates amazing noisy glitchy beats out of anything you capture into the recorder. You can also achieve 'normal' beats if you use your own samples.
    The limitations are what make it so cool.
    I've yet to find a music app without limitations anyway, so use it for what it's good for, generating a ton of randomized patterns from your imported loops or sounds captured through the phones mic.

  • Almost perfect!

    Needs 32 steps for more intricate pattern building as well as the ability to add swing!

    Also the ability to control the release on each sample would be great!

    Otherwise this thing is incredible inspirational
  • Pure creativity

    While I have one major request for this app--which I hope might be addressed in future updates--I have to give it props for it's design, depth, and functionality. It's one critical flaw is the only thing keeping it from 5 stars.

    My big, pleading wish is for the ability to record and/or import individual sounds rather than one long string to be cut up. If this function exists I haven't found it. The addition of this feature would change this app from a toy to a tool. I understand the developer's desire for in-the-moment creativity, but they are being a bit disingenuous as clearly none of their samples were created this way. (Oh, and one other nit-pick: black fonts on a dark grey background may work for owls, but not me.)

    Add an import sound function, and I will work with Apple to create the world's first 10-star review. In the meantime, congrats to all involved in the creation of this ingenious app!

  • Gets old quick.

    I was disappointed after purchasing this app because of the positive reviews. Major flaw- NO SAVING INDIVIDUAL SOUNDS. Whats the point if you can only have one recording at a time and not save it when you want to replace and/or add another recording? The app in general gets old quick due to its obvious limitations. A nice toy at best.

  • Almost perfect

    My only complaint is that you can only record one sample at a time. I wish I could record multiple samples to use in one song. But other than that this is such a beautifully simple sample maker. Love it!!
